What else we do in Staple
Common questions in Staple
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Repairing versus replacing in Staple

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Staple?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Staple. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CT3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
